The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), signed in 2015 by the Obama administration with Iran and world powers, limited Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief. President Trump withdrew the United States from the agreement in 2018, reimposing sanctions and increasing tensions with Iran. Critics argue the withdrawal increased regional instability and the risk of nuclear conflict without providing alternative diplomatic solutions.
